TABLE 55. 

 COMPRESSIBILITY OF LIQUIDS, 



79 



If V\ is the volume under pressure p\ atmospheres at tC, and V% is volume at pressure /2 and the 

 same temperature, then the compressibility coefficient may be defined at that temperature as : 



In absolute units (referred to megadynes) the coefficient is 



1.0137
